Assistive technology for relieving communication lumber between hearing/speech impaired and hearing people

This study proposes an automatic sign language translator, which is developed as assistive technology to help the hearing/speech impaired communities to communicate with the rest of the world. The system architecture, which includes feature extraction and recognition stages is described in detail. T...
